Second-life battery strategy for hybrid and electric vehicle prototypes

Strategic consultancy to manage and revalue a growing volume of prototype EV/PHEV batteries, a reuse, resale and recycling strategy aligned with corporate ESG goals, with second-life market assessment and operational structuring.

01
Background

A growing volume of batteries fitted to hybrid (PHEV) and electric (BEV) vehicle prototypes was reaching end of life, and the client needed a way to manage and revalue it in line with its ESG targets.

02
Process

One Hub Energy built a comprehensive strategy for the valorisation, repurposing and recycling of end-of-life EV battery packs. The work included a full second-life market assessment for the resale of used packs, testing market potential and appetite across different second-life applications; a structured recycling approach covering hazardous logistics planning and the assessment of packaging options and providers for defective or critical batteries; and operational structuring, with technical support on the operational and contractual processes required to make the resale model real and compliant with applicable regulations.

03
Outcome

"A technical procedure for repurposing second-life batteries was delivered, together with the commercial strategy and the contractual terms for their resale."
